In my first playthrough of Remnant 2, I played a Hunter and kept my distance from most enemies. As a result, I wanted something very different for my second character, so I took a look at theavailable archetypesand landed on the Challenger—the tank-like shotgun-wielding user. Naturally, I wanted to take what I had learned to make the best Challenger build in Remnant 2.
Best Tank Build in Remnant 2
The Challenger is a close-range fighter that can take a lot of damage, making it the perfect tank. For this build, we will be focusing on making the Challenger as tanky as possible and becoming your party’s bullet sponge. Here is the best build for Challenger in Remnant 2.

This build focuses onstaying alive and dealing massive amounts of damagewith shotguns. As such, you will be spending most of your time in the front line. Juggernaut is a crucial part of this build, giving you Bulwark when activated, and increasing your movement speed and melee weapon damage. This pairs nicely with the Hardcore Metal Band, as this ring can give you Bulwark while you wait for Juggernaut to recharge.
The Engineer archetype adds a hefty amount of armor, making you even more tanky. Fortify and Heavy Mobility will make you more durable and increase your speed while holding a heavy weapon. The above traits do well to provide increased defense and health. Expertise is a must, as it will let you activate Juggernaut and Vulcan more often.
You also gain access to heavy weapons, which round out your arsenal nicely by letting you use it to get more range. As you primarily use shotguns, having a long-range weapon is great, even if it is temporary. Overall, you should be surviving most fights with this build, but don’t get too aggressive or make risky decisions every encounter. and ensure you are healing when needed.
